LDAP-UX Integration B.04.15 Release Notes

On HP-UX 11i v1 and v2, the maximum length of the user or group name can be only eight
characters.
LDAP Directory Interoperability
The LDAP-UX product has been certified under the OpenGroup’s works with LDAP 2000
branding.
LDAP-UX has been designed to work with any directory server that can support the RFC 2307
schema or similar syntactic schema (such as the Microsoft Services For Unix 3.0 schema). The
LDAP-UX product requires the "Configuration Profile" schema, which is defined at the IETF
drafts web site http://www.ietf.org/ID.html.
This draft is currently published as draft-joslin-config-schema-07.txt (which will likely be replaced
by a future draft revision or RFC). The "Configuration Profile" schema will be automatically
installed on directory servers that support online modification of the subschema subentry.
The following list of directories have been tested or minimally verified.
• Netscape Directory Server 6.11/6.21 and Red Hat Directory Server 7.0/7.1for HP-UX - Fully
tested and supported
• Microsoft Windows 2000/2003 Active Directory - Fully tested and supported
